Some rivers and lochs do not allow Sunday Fishing. Most trout fisheries in Scotland are fly fishing only.

Rainbow Trout season

You can fish for Rainbow trout in Scotland All Year – There is no Close Season.

Rainbow trout were introduced to Scotland as a sport fish. All Rainbow trout in the UK are Triploid, hence sterilised and unable to spawn. This measure is universal and was et in place to preserve Wild Brown Trout.

Fly fishing for trout in Scotland in rivers can be challenging as the fish are crafty and easily spooked. This is because they are wild fish, and survival is their prime instinct. With careful approach and the correct techniques and planning, there are some specimens to be caught.

It is advisable to book a dedicated trout fishing guide when fishing in Scotland. Our team contains many trout fishing experts.
